More Treading Lightly: Running Amok with Organized Rhyme
by John Gentry
WARNING!
If you don't like any of the lines below, you won't like any of the poems inside:
"He is the scourge of the rodent world, the Jack the Ripper of mice, The Boogie Man of Gopherdom with a heart as cold as ice." -From "Running around Loose"
"I tell you the psycho-spiritual stuff, it's all the rage these days. Just open your mind to the astral plane and walk in the cosmic ways." -From "Visualizing"
"Each day he plotted and connived, cajoled her, fumed and cussed To inveigle Wilhelmena to surrender to his lust." -From "Medieval Melodrama"
"We armed ourselves like valiant men, with swords of wood and guns of tin, And with an oath set out to seek dragons up and down that creek." -From "Asotin Creek"
"My squash and string beans they devour, freely, sans permission; My corn and carrots, too, they send to vegetable perdition." -From "Unhand That Coleoptera" "And so his heart is set on having a disintegrator ray. He plans to roam the neighborhood
and have a field day." -From "Happy Birthday Disintegrator"
"Of Dunkin' Donuts, chocolate glazed, nightly do I dream, And drool and slaver on my pillow for cakes and Krispy Kreme." -From "Calorie Wars"
"Then late one night in Tinsel Town at 34th and Vine, My eye fell on some purple words hand-painted on a sign." -From "Love Potion #9, Revisited"
